OK, in which case your existing smb.conf requires a total re-write.

This could be for several reasons, your existing smb.conf isn't allowing
the join, or you just haven't joined the domain, for instance.

Based on what you posted, try this one:

[global]
        workgroup = HEBE
        security = ADS
	realm = HEBE.US

        winbind use default domain = Yes
        winbind refresh tickets = yes
        winbind offline logon = yes
        dns proxy = no

        idmap config * : backend = tdb
        idmap config * : range = 3000-7999
        idmap config HEBE : backend = rid
        idmap config HEBE : range = 10000-20000
        template shell = /bin/bash

	vfs objects = acl_xattr shadow_copy2
        map acl inherit = Yes

        printcap name = /dev/null
        load printers = no
        disable spoolss = yes
        printing = bsd

        log level = 3
        max log size = 50
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        ntlm auth = mschapv2-and-ntlmv2-only

There are no shares shown, because the only shares you did show
'sysvol' & 'netlogon' shouldn't be on a fileserver.

Stop any Samba daemons, then run:

sudo net ads join -UAdministrator

Enter the Administrator password when prompted.

Once the join has succeeded, start the Samba daemons.
